"So, once I lose power, you might not be able to stay under the Gu Family’s influence anymore. As the saying goes, ’A new king brings his own courtiers.’ Consider this a cautionary reminder for each of you to plan early and find your own way out."
He noticed that the people in front of him all displayed a state of shock, unable to regain their composure, and his gaze eventually settled on Hua Hua’s face: "Among you all, I’m most worried about Hua Hua. Hua Hua, I’ve arranged a vineyard for you in France. If sothing really happens to one day, just pack up and move to France. There, the Gu Family’s influence is the weakest, and it should be sufficient for you to live the rest of your life worry-free."
"Fengchi is the one I’m least worried about. Your family has a strong background in Canada and even if I’m gone, the worst thing that would happen is the Gu Family might take back the house you’re staying in, it won’t affect you otherwise. However, I hope that when the ti cos, you could help your other brothers out, can you do that?"
While he was speaking these words, nobody in front of him responded.
Apart from the heavy breathing, there was only him talking to himself.
Shaocheng closed his eyes again, speaking these words seed like making arrangents for his own aftermath, surprisingly feeling not as heavy-hearted but rather more relieved. As he opened his eyes again, his gaze fell on the object in Nan Baihao’s hand, "Over the years, Baihao has been my sharp sword, often offending many within the vast Gu Family, let alone outsiders."
"If you lose the big backing of the Gu Family, I fear that many will co seeking revenge on you in the future, and up to now, I haven’t figured out how to help you mitigate this crisis." Once entangled in the affairs of the world, it’s hard to leave unscathed.
Gu Shaocheng slowly regulated his breathing, "After much deliberation, unless you establish your own stronghold and beco powerful yourself, only then can you retire unscathed."
"So, I want to take advantage of the fact that I can still make decisions for you. Today when you go back, seriously consider the matter of establishing your stronghold. If you encounter any difficulties, I can help you. Take my personal guards with you in the future, all the strengths that belong only to within the Gu Family, I will give them all to you. With your capabilities, it shouldn’t be a problem to create sothing of your own within two years."
Nan Baihao did not speak, his hands tightly clenched, his knuckles cracking amidst the silence in the room.
Lastly, Bai Wuqing.
"Wuqing, I’m not worried about you. Your scheming is even more ticulous than mine, and your law firm has a great reputation internationally. Even if you no longer act as my right-hand man, you have already carved out a place for yourself. I just want to ask you to advice Baihao regularly. He is brave but lacks strategy, and without your assistance, I fear he won’t be able to achieve great things."
He had arranged everything for the aftermath, yet the people opposite him did not give any response.
He knew, suddenly talking about this, these brothers who had gone through life and death with him would definitely not be able to accept it right away. From what he understood about them, unless he was gone, they would never abandon him.
However, even if they didn’t leave him, he still needed to inject these precautionary asures into them, allowing them to start looking for their own ways out.
They could protect him until death, but what about after he was gone? They needed to plan for their own lives.
Every person has their own family, everyone has their own people to protect, and even among the four brothers, two already have children.
